Redbook Party and a HUGE Giveaway!

Over weekend I had the pleasure of hosting an evening under the stars with some gal pals  for a special Summer Happy Hour soirée. 

My colors for this party were black, white and hot pink with a dash of Damask thrown in there!

The party was very special as it was sponsored by:  

Redbook Magazine

 L’Oreal Paris 

Lipton  

(all provided by: House Party)

The gals were treated to some great food, conversation, laughter and some great swag from Redbook and L’Oreal Paris.

The evening consisted of some light chatter....

I entertained the ladies on our patio under the lights. 

 some great food ....

Push Up Pops containers played host to some FRESH Summer Fruit - on ice!

Help yourself chip containers made for less waste!

Seeing this sexy Damask pattern sprinkled here and there?  

Individual Pesto Pasta salads were just what I needed as our friendly evening bugs
were looking for a treat!  No way were they getting any of this yummy salad!

These chocolate cupcakes were HUGE and oh so creamy!  Using a new Sugar Sheet (in Damask pattern)
and Sugar Sheet punch - I was able to elegantly decorate these cupcakes to go with my theme!

  The White Sweet Sangria topped off the menu – perfect choice for a perfect evening.

Handed out some awesome door prizes....

One of my gal pals won this Adorable Headband  from Skylar Raine!
Oh how cute this Etsy shop is!

  Ladies got a chance to catch up...
